**Clovis, New Mexico** - A tragic discovery has rocked the community of Clovis, New Mexico, as a 10-month-old girl has been reported missing after her mother and another woman were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide. The victims, identified as 23-year-old Samantha Cisneros and 23-year-old Taryn Allen, were discovered lying on the ground near a silver minivan in Ned Houk Park on Friday evening.
When officers arrived at the scene, they also found Cisneros' five-year-old daughter nearby with a head injury. She was immediately transported to a local hospital for treatment. Upon searching the area, police discovered an infant car seat, stroller, and a small baby bottle, leading them to suspect that a baby may have been present during the crime.
After speaking with family members, officers determined that Cisneros was the mother of both the injured five-year-old girl and 10-month-old Eleia Torres. Police believe that Eleia may have been abducted by the person responsible for the killings.
An Amber Alert has been issued for Eleia, and authorities are actively searching for her. She is described as 28 inches tall, weighing 23 pounds, with brown eyes and brown hair.
